I feel like exploding

Honestly,I feel like Im going to explode.
I'm an 8th grade student,and today I had a math and a geography test.I got 70% in math and 100% in geography,and my parents didn't say a "We're proud of you!" For me trying.(all they saw was the 70% of math)
I dont know how I will survive this school year without committing.It's not like I would do this just because of a grade.No,hell no,I've been fighting addiction,depression and anxiety for months now.
I need a person I can vent to.Cause I can't keep up with life anymore and I just feel like commiting every night.

70% is still a good score and I'm proud you were able to achieve that. In the UK that would be a grade A! Remember to focus on what you got right and tell yourself I know these areas and I now need to focus on the last 30%.

Also worth saying 10 years after you finish school the grades will count a lot less as people will look at what skills and work experience you have. I'm sometimes involved on the recruitment side and it is more 'is this the right person for the role' than what grade did they achieve 10 years ago.

At the end of the day do the best you can do. That is all anyone can ask.

In terms of stress and life is there any hobbies or interests that you like to do. It's really important to have a balance and ways to unwind.

Anyway I hope things improve for you.

I know this feeling so well. I had that all during my entire youth. My brother used to get praised all the time, while I was just ignored. Noone cared about me and my feelings. I bite on my teeth years and years. But finally my time came, when I became independent , and I got all what I was longing for years and years: Success, admiration, people seeking to be near to me, friends, girls ( earlier I could hardly believe a girl would care a little bit about me), super job, travelling all over the world, children, grandchildren.
Your time will come

You got like 8 to 10 more years , persevere.

And move out and be your own man.

Also remember you don't anyone's approval to be happy.
